History of Acupuncture
Acupuncture is the art of alternative medicine that tries to cure patients’ disease in a way by manipulation and insertion needles into specific points located in the body. Such treatment is not only aim to cure disease, but also prevent it. It is also believed to serves as an infertility treatment. In addition, the art of acupuncture is also believed to contain elements of treatment that can not be fully understood by modern medical science.
Medical treatment with a needle is said to have originated from China, and is believed to have been there in the second century BC. From the country of origin, theory and practice of acupuncture art was later spread to Japan, Korea, and Taiwan. While there may be differences with what is taught in his native country, but that art of medicine has been practiced widely and in different ways in different parts of the world. In Europe for example, examination of the 5,000-year-old mummy called Otzi the Iceman has identified a set of 15 pieces tattoos on his body, some of the tattoos which placed at certain points of the body are now known as contemporary acupuncture points.
In essence, treatment with acupuncture has a different concept as we might know in modern medical science. Traditional acupuncture was developed with a priority to know the human anatomy and cell theory based on modern biological sciences. One powerful feature that can be found on acupuncture treatment is the existence of qi, or energy that surrounds human body, a thing which of course can not be proved scientifically by modern medical science.
